A newly announced policy of the Rensselaer County Board of Elections violates the National Voter Registration Act

Re: Announced Policy's Violation of Sections 5 and 8 of the National Voter Registration Act

The County announced it would “immediately” begin sharing the identities of persons who register to vote through the DMV with the Immigration and Customs Service (“ICE”). This is in violation of Sections 5 and 8 of the NVRA.

The Supreme Court should hold that Title VII bars discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.

By enacting SB 7066, the Florida legislature has created two classes of returning citizens: those who can afford to reclaim their voting rights, and those who cannot.

Today’s Supreme Court decision that federal courts have no ability to check extreme partisan gerrymandering is a stunning blow to our democracy. This decision represents an abdication of judicial responsibility to protect against constitutional violations.

"It’s also clear what we must do: restore the race-conscious protections of the Voting Rights Act and enact affirmative measures to expand ballot access across the country."

Grassroots organizers and civil rights groups banded together to stop Texas officials from denying the franchise to voters of color.

We write to applaud the introduction of HB 57, which would end felony disenfranchisement and facilitate full political and civic participation for thousands of New Mexico voters.
